Jico makes 2 replacement needles. (See link) They have a Shibata and a HyperElliptical. Both are bonded. I don't know much about either, but Jico has a good reputation. I would feel safer with them than other manufactures. Unfortunately there are no compliance specs so I don't know how close they are to the original. I was considering them for my ADC XLM Mark II improved to put on my Grace 707.
